Gondek, Chair The fictional women presented to the public on the opera stages and in the noble houses of Italy during the seventeenth century did not resemble the societal feminine ideal of chastity, silence, obedience, and humility; on the contrary, they were strong-willed, eloquent, powerful, and sexually sentient. This dissertation will examine a few of the principal female characters from a selected number of early seventeenth-century operas and explore what these women represented in context of the patriarchal, highly misogynistic societies in which they were constructed. Furthermore, I will consider the implications of this information for issues of modern performance practice, and for the representation of these female characters in modern reproductions of the operas. Finally, I will discuss the influences of this research on my final DMA recital, a program of seventeenth-century arias and songs which personified the female stereotypes presented in this dissertation. -
MONTEPULCIANO's PALAZZO COMUNALE, 1440 – C.1465: RETHINKING CASTELLATED CIVIC PALACES in FLORENTINE ARCHITECTURAL and POLITI
MONTEPULCIANO’S PALAZZO COMUNALE, 1440 – c.1465: RETHINKING CASTELLATED CIVIC PALACES IN FLORENTINE ARCHITECTURAL AND POLITICAL CONTEXTS Two Volumes Volume I Koching Chao Ph.D. University of York History of Art September 2019 ABSTRACT This thesis argues for the significance of castellated civic palaces in shaping and consolidating Florence’s territorial hegemony during the fifteenth century. Although fortress-like civic palaces were a predominant architectural type in Tuscan communes from the twelfth century onwards, it is an understudied field. In the literature of Italian Renaissance civic and military architecture, the castellated motifs of civic palaces have either been marginalised as an outdated and anti-classical form opposing Quattrocento all’antica taste, or have been oversimplified as a redundant object lacking defensive functionality. By analysing Michelozzo’s Palazzo Comunale in Montepulciano, a fifteenth-century castellated palace resembling Florence’s thirteenth-century Palazzo dei Priori, this thesis seeks to address the ways in which castellated forms substantially legitimised Florence’s political, military and cultural supremacy. Chapter One examines textual and pictorial representations of Florence’s castellation civic palaces and fortifications in order to capture Florentine perceptions of castellation. This investigation offers a conceptual framework, interpreting the profile of castellated civic palaces as an effective architectural affirmation of the contemporary idea of a powerful city-republic rather than being a symbol of despotism as it has been previously understood. Chapters Two and Three examine Montepulciano’s renovation project for the Palazzo Comunale within local and central administrative, socio-political, and military contexts during the first half of the fifteenth century, highlighting the Florentine features of Montepulciano’s town hall despite the town’s peripheral location within the Florentine dominion. -
Dossier Aveugles Pêcheurs
Jacques Ofenbach Délyriades présente : Les deux aveugles Les deux pêcheurs avec Fabrice Maitre, ténor Jean-Noël Poggiali, ténor Fabrice Boulanger, piano Un peu d’histoire ! 2 aveugles, 2 pêcheurs, 2 chanteurs… Nous sommes au début de l’année 1855 et Paris prépare févreusement l’Exposition Universelle. Jacques Ofenbach, compositeur ayant des difcultés à se faire jouer, multiplie les démarches afn d’exploiter lui-même un théâtre mais le cadre de la réglementation est particulièrement stricte. Le 5 juillet, l’administration l’autorise à faire jouer des « scènes comiques et musicales dialoguées à deux ou trois personnages »… pas un de plus. Le théâtre des Boufes-Parisiens est né et avec lui une litanie de pièces – répondant strictement à cette contrainte – à deux ou trois personnages (et jusqu’à 5 danseurs au maximum). Parmi les pièces données lors de cette inauguration, « Les Deux Aveugles » fut portée aux nues par le public. Elle devait garder l'afche durant un an. Napoléon III la faisant même jouer aux Tuileries à l'occasion du Congrès de la Paix réuni à Paris. aujourd’hui contraintes budgétaires, créations de « petites formes »… XIXe ou XXIe siècle ? Aujourd’hui le spectacle vivant s’empare de nouveau de ce qu’il appelle des « petites formes » dans un contexte bien diférent et dont les raisons économiques sont une des motivations principales. Mais que nous apprennent donc ces « petites formes » du XIXe, dont certaines sont depuis devenues des pièces du répertoire et d’autres sont tombées dans l’oubli ? Au delà de la contrainte formelle de leur création, qu’ont-elles à nous dire aujourd’hui ? Nous avons donc associé le temps d’une soirée deux ouvrages écrits par Jacques Ofenbach pour deux ténors, chacune des pièces ayant son identité musicale propre et ses trouvailles particulières. -
Perspective As Structured Memory in the Wake of the Great Plague of 1348
Quart 2020, 3 PL ISSN 1896-4133 [s. 3-18] Perspective as structured memory in the wake of the Great Plague of 1348 Michael Grillo University of Maine Introduction Extolled for its narrative structuring, mimetic illusionism, and symbolic form, perspective stands out as the signature vision of the Renaissance, setting a normative standard of visualization encoded in opti- cally-based technologies that ensued in later centuries. Modern Era historians have typically described a positivist story of perspective, looking for protean origins in the Late Dugento and Early Trecento that only later Quattrocento artists would finally perfect. For these authors, perspective presented a desirable, yet elusive goal, obtainable only through decades of experimentation1. A variation on this theme entails paralleling this development as part of a similarly difficult Classical revival, one likewise requiring gene- rations of artists to achieve an ostensibly long-term goal of reduplication2. Developing more nuanced un- derstanding of how perspective might articulate, explore, and make operative ideologies characteristic of the Renaissance, Erwin Panofsky and Hubert Damisch consider perspective beyond its mimetic illusions to ask how it serves to create a mythic Classical consciousness, which Samuel Y. Edgerton extends to looking to its link to mapmaking and navigation3. Looking to how core ideologies shape the way in which a culture interacts with its physical environment opens up for this study why interests in a compositional perspective emerged at the start of the Quattrocento. In the deeply-seated positivist model, the Plague years and ensuing decades through the end of the Trecento represented a pause in this ostensibly linear development, derailing only temporally what 1 See J. -

JACQUES OFFENBACH : HIS CENTENARY By MARTIAL TENEO O N June the 20th, 1819, at Cologne, in the Glockengasse (now only a memory), was born Jacques Offenbach,whose renown, forty years later, was to overspreadthe world. To rehabilitate such an artist, still held in contempt at the present day by our musical "scientists," to restore him to his rightful place on the occasion of the centennial of his birth, is a task worthy of an unbiassed historian. -
Issue No. 13-August 2012 CLANGOUR of “BATTLE”
Issue no. 13-August 2012 CLANGOUR OF “BATTLE” Paolo Uccello’s celebrated painting emerges from restoration with heightened forcefulness and serves as the true apotheosis of Renaissance perspectival vision, as the fitting conclusion to the “Bagliori Dorati” exhibit The high point and, at least symbolically, the concluding work of the “Bagliori dorati” exhibit is the restored Battle of San Romano that Paolo Uccello painted ca. 1440. In this painting the painstakingly drafted and “flash-frozen” vision in perspective brings together and organizes the chaos, the deafening clamor, the crush and metallic clashing of the chivalric dream at its most extreme. The masterful restoration confirmed the vicissitudes experienced by the panel, which Lorenzo the Magnificent obtained (along with the two others) after putting heavy pressure on its owners, the Bartolini Salimbeni; he then put all three on display in his room in the Palazzo Medici, adapting their shape with cuts and additions. Two armies gleaming in silver and gold; their massive mounts; sweet landscapes barely disturbed by the soldiers’ passage; chain mail and horses’ manes: nothing escapes the painter’s eye in this perspective Renaissance vision.
